Any net (unbalanced) force would produce an acceleration, according to Newton's Second Law: F = ma (net force equals mass times acceleration). Reorganizing, the acceleration is F/m. Using SI units, if the force is in Newtons, and the mass in kg., the acceleration is m/sec2 (meter per second square).

How do unbalanced forces effect an objects motion?

If the [group of] forces on an object is unbalanced, the object accelerates.


What happens when forces are balanced and unbalanced?

When forces are balanced, the object remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity. When forces are unbalanced, there is a net force acting on the object, causing it to accelerate in the direction of the greater force.


What are unbalanced forces and what happens if forces are unbalanced?

Balanced forces will either push or pull against each other with equal force and no net movement will result. If forces are unbalanced, that means that one will push or pull harder than the other and movement will result.


What is true about the motion of an object if the forces are unbalanced?

If the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the larger force. This acceleration will continue as long as the forces remain unbalanced. The object's velocity and direction will change in response to the unbalanced forces.


Describe the difference between balanced and unbalanced forces?

Balanced forces have the same effect as not moving at all. The motion of the object does not change at allOnly unbalanced forces can change the motion of an object. It does not matter if the object was at rest or was already moving.


What happens to a moving object when there are unbalanced forces acting on it and the bigger force is in the same direction as the movement?

The object will move faster


What are unbalanced forces and what?

Balanced forces describes when all forces on an object are equal. Unbalanced forces describes when the forces on an object are unequal, resulting in movement. Forces are balanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is zero, at which point the object will be at rest or be in motion with constant velocity. Forces are unbalanced when the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is greater or less than zero, at which point the object will accelerate by either starting motion from rest, or changing its motion if it is already in motion, for example, by changing direction or speed.


How do balanced forces and unbalanced forces differ?

* Balanced: The vector sum of all forces on an object is zero. The object does not accelerate.* Unbalanced: The vector sum of all forces on an object is NOT zero, the object DOES accelerate.


Will an object move if it has unbalanced force on it?

-- An object may be in motion even without any forces on it.-- An object will accelerate if the forces on it are unbalanced.


What is it called the result of unbalanced forces?

The result of unbalanced forces is called acceleration. When the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, the object will accelerate in the direction of the stronger force.


What unbalanced force?

Unbalanced forces are forces that produce a nonzero net force, which changes an object's motion. The result of an unbalanced force is acceleration of an object.


Why are forces unbalanced?

Forces are unbalanced when there is a net force acting on an object causing it to accelerate or change its motion. This could happen when the forces acting on an object are not equal in magnitude or not opposite in direction. Unbalanced forces result in a change in the object's velocity.
